Chapter 604: The Best Wind Ninja!

Chapter 604: The Best Wind Ninja!

"Fortunately, our village has someone who is probably the best at Wind Release in the world."

Naruto immediately became excited and exclaimed, "Really? Who is it?"

Kakashi continued smiling and said, "It's none other than Fujin."

"WHAT??? Big brother Fujin is the best at Wind Release in the entire world?" To say Naruto was shocked was an understatement. Until a few months ago, he didn't even know that Fujin had a cool nickname. And now suddenly, Kakashi dropped this bomb.

Kakashi just nodded and coolly said, "Yes, he is."

At the same time, Kakashi thought, 'Though that is more due to the fact that there are no strong Wind users in the world as Sunagakure themselves are heavily lacking in this aspect. If Fujin is ignored, then the next best ones will be Elder Danzo and Lord Hokage.

By comparison, the Raikage specializes in Lightning Release and is very strong. For Earth Release, it is difficult for anyone to compete with the Tsuchikage. For Fire Release, Lord Hokage could probably set fire to the entire Land of Fire while the Land of Water has several formidable ninjas who specialize in Water Release.

Of course, there is no reason to tell Naruto this.'

Naruto thought, 'I didn't know big brother Fujin was so good! No wonder he decided to teach me Wind jutsus. Now that I think about it, he can do some crazy things with Wind. I still remember how he could restrain me with just a snap of his fingers!'

Seeing Naruto in thought, Kakashi coaxed, "For now, focus on mastering those 3 jutsus. Once you master them, you can ask Fujin to teach you more Wind jutsus. Hmm, wait..."

Kakashi pretended to be in deep thought. Naruto paid attention carefully. Suddenly, Kakashi said, "You know, now that I have thought about it more, I think it'll be better for you to go to him as soon as you can and ask for his guidance. He might know some jutsus that are more suitable for you. It'll save some time."

Excitement appeared in Naruto's eyes. He immediately said, "Alright! I'll go ask him, believe it!"

Without waiting for Kakashi's reply, Naruto began running. Kakashi looked at his back and muttered, "Now that's more like it. I should've done this on the very first day. It would be fun to see Fujin's reaction when Naruto approaches him. Unfortunately, his house gives me creeps. I won't be able to spy in secret."

With Naruto gone, Kakashi opened his book and walked away while reading it. A few minutes later, Kakashi had become quite engrossed in that book when he suddenly felt something. He looked behind him. His right eye widened as he saw Naruto flying towards him once again while shouting, "Kakashi sensei! Wait!"

Seconds later, Naruto crashed in front of Kakashi. He quickly got up as Kakashi asked, "Why are you back? Didn't I tell you to ask for his guidance?"

With a grin on his face, Naruto answered, "I did. He praised me saying that I'm learning the right jutsus and added that I'm on the right track. He told me to master those three jutsus as well and told me to use Gale Palm jutsu and Projectile Control jutsu together so that others won't be able to dodge my weapons easily."

Kakashi nodded and said, "That makes sense. Still, why are you here?"

Sayaka placed her hand on Yuji's shoulder and said with a smirk, "If you continue being mischievous, Sensei might throw you next."

Immediately, Yuji became nervous and said, "Hey, I don't create any trouble, like Naruto! I'm smart enough to know that I shouldn't annoy sensei! Besides, what's up with Sensei's Wind Release? It is so different from any other ninja's Wind Release!"

Takeshi nodded and said, "Yes. It almost feels like a Kekkei Genkai! However, Sensei said that he doesn't have any Kekkei Genkai. No one else says that sensei has a Kekkei Genkai either."

Sayaka added, "I was intrigued as well. That's why, I did some digging."

Her words immediately gained the attention of the remaining kids. As the eldest and the one who led their small squad, her words held slightly more weight than others. Hikari quickly asked, "What did you find?"

Sayaka said, "It's difficult to find anything concrete. Instead, I looked at other top-tier ninjas. I discovered that nearly all top-level ninjas can use nature manipulation in a way that almost makes it seem like a Kekkei Genkai.

For instance, the Third Tsuchikage can fly using Earth Release. He can also make other objects heavier and lighter with Earth Release. The Fourth Raikage can create an Armor of Lightning with Lightning Release. Apparently, no attack can pierce through that armor and he can move at the speed of Lightning!

So, sensei's Wind Release may have reached a similar level. That is why it is so different as compared to our and our Anbu instructors' Wind Release."

Yuji exclaimed in surprise, "You mean that our sensei is at the same level as the Raikage and Tsuchikage?"

Sayaka answered, "I can't say for sure. The only thing I can say is that sensei's Wind Release is likely at that level. In a way, it is actually cooler than Kekkei Genkai as it is far more versatile and rare. As for whether he can fight against them, it's hard to say for someone like me."

Sayaka's explanation made sense. The four kids nodded. Even though they weren't sure, their respect for Fujin increased by a few levels!
